Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward

Introduction

There is a parallel universe theory that states that every decision we make or could have made creates another universe. Everytime we choose what food to eat, what color shirt to wear, or mark ‘true’ on a test question, new universes are created in which we may have chosen a different option.

SUPERHOT is a first person puzzle shooter with simple graphics, a type of time travel mechanic, and a cryptic storyline. The player plays a character that’s playing a cracked video game from a friend on an old, 80’s-90’s computer. The player experiences the menu and between-level narrative in this computer, which simulates the bubble of a CRT and the constrained ASCII character interface (don’t worry, you can use your mouse). Narrative advance occurs primarily via the computer interface via a chat program that runs in the background.
